How to open GR8 file?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the GR8 file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.

Step 2. Create association of RECOIL with GR8 files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the GR8 file still does not use the RECOIL program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the GR8 file with the RECOIL application.

Step 3. Update RECOIL to the latest version

If, despite the association of the RECOIL program with the Stock Study Guide Data Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Piotr Fusik and Adrian Matoga website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the GR8 file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:

The GR8 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to GR8 files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file GR8 or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected GR8 file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the GR8 files changes over time. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair GR8 file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file GR8 except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the GR8 file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file GR8 to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
